Sensational News from Research

On Monday Dr Clark from Cincinatti announced great news on his Facebook Creatine Transport Deficiency Group:
"Dear creatine deficiency group,
I am pleased to announce that today we published this article:http://www.jci.org/articles/view/59373, in the highly prestigious Journal of Clinical Investigation demonstrating that we have found a treatment for the creatine transporter deficiency. This research has, to date, only been done in mice with the disease, but the treatment is with a repurposed drug that has already been through PART of the FDA approval process. It is not approved for CTD, nor is it available for treating any disease. However we now know that we can treat this disease and are in what we hope will be the final stretch for treating boys with this disease. 
I will always update the group as things progress. What you can do is tell your physicians to be aware of this paper and be ready..."
